Muse - Uprising (Dr Who theme?)

[moondropjb]

I watch doctor who and i think it sounds like it

[cardwitch91]

It has a similiar feel but overall Uprising sounds nothing like the Doctor Who theme tune. I like it because I like Muse and I think a lot of Muse songs would suit Doctor Who.

[JerryTheDoc]

THIS IS WHAT DOCTOR WHO SHOULD SOUND LIKE TO INCREASE VIEWS, PLEASE MAKE A FULL VERSION!!!!!!!!

[JerryTheDoc]

@JerryTheDoc Hold on, this ain't a doctor who remix. Oh...... lol

[Dumbledoresarmy13]

Haha, my friend likes muse and when she played this I was like, "whaaat??? Dr. Who music?" :P

[Temaile]

I KNEW it sounded familiar!

[trema006]

always imagined this song would be great in a dr who video!

[mst3knut]

At least I am not the only one who made the connection between the two songs.

[Obraxes]

haha love it

[MBails1987]

Not a bad twist.

[Gryffindorfan68]

Wow I never noticed that before but it really is perfect.

[LoriCiani]

Hmm..I always felt there was a kind of time lordish feel about some of there songs. : ))

[5dmc1]

someone needs to do a dalek compilation with this song, maybe I will L:)

[haiguiz]

Honestly I don't see the connection so many people are making. Sure, the synth Muse uses sounds almost the same as the one used in the DW theme song, but besides that, 3 of the notes are the same as the doctor who theme, the rest are all different sound nothing like rest of the theme.

There have been songs out there that copied a lot more than 3 notes from another song.

Seems like a lot of people can't tell the difference from copying a song, and establishing a similar atmosphere as a song.

[Kbecr]

Agreed so ripped off!!! Cant people get their own material!!!!

[lulabell0]

omg it works

[MorganBatChava]

omg it's totally there!

[AliciaPCV]

Oh God, it IS very very alike!

Also, Tennant and Bellamy look pretty much alike , they could as well be brothers!

[unoficial13thdoctor]

this isnt really the dr who theme. 'ive got you number' by the steriophonics sounds more like it

[redfoxonstilts]

They could use it in the new series :))

[libelle156]

lulz

[tobisama]

LOL I'm from Colombia and I got a cd with TV Themes, the Doctor Who one is one of my favorites, and when I hear the intro of the Muse song,the connection was immediate.....I didn't know that this facts is well known.

[sparkleT19]

I thought of Dr. Who too when I heard this song too!

[BomazXD]

yeah haha i thought same, but first word being parananoia thats spoken as doctor who titles come up...hmm

[AppleLGrass]

I think  this version would be much much better than the new one in 5 series.

[XxCarlieCullenxX]

wen i 1st heard uprising it was after the confimation of 11, i thought it was his credit theme at 1st

[CaptainAndyman]

It does sound like it, lol!

[harryhillstvfart]

Not only have Muse (and I'm Not amused!) copied the rift from the Doctor Who theme, but tacked on at the end of this clip is a couple of chords ripped straight off Blondie's "Call Me" .

Muse you robbing bastards!

[TheWilbz]

Muse must be good if they managed to steal a rift...

Terminology fail...

[zcullenhalerathbone]

haha Awesome idea!!!!

[alfiemendo]

What a rip off!!! You broke my heart Muse... Your sounds were too "synthetic" to be yours.

[walsallmatt]

i wondered how long it would take before people caught on :)

[FallenKane]

When I first heard the fragment, I though unconciously of Dr. Who too. I think It could be the Intro for the new Dr. WHO series coming spring 2012 couldn't it?

[livstar93]

no. u cant change the dr who theme, even to summat like this. u can play it in different ways n arrangement might be a vit diff over the years, but the tune is so integral and iconic to the series it wud be total sacrilege

[livstar93]

to change it. sorry pressed post before id done. lol

[DainBramageStudios]

Doctor Who Theme > Uprising

I'm just saying

[fi6fo]

aamusedd22-I totally agree!!! Matt Bellamy and David Tennant...you cant get better than that!

[lordbaztard]

Good lord. I didn't need any more reason to hate recent muse, but they give me a reason anyway. Thanks guys.

[graymic]

tbh get with the changes, I didn't like their new stuff at first but it definately is better than most crap out there by years. They have a unique sound and are good imo but no problem ;)

[lordbaztard]

Lets try this again. I tried this a couple of times late last night and youtube kept swallowing my replies.

Muse's recent stuff sounds like they want to be Pendulum, but without the effort, and pendulum just do a much better job blending soft-rock and electronica.

[aegisrunestone]

Muse has their own style of music, and they do a lot of experiments lately. Combination of electronic, rock, and classical is what they're at best. Really, its just people's taste.

[lordbaztard]

Muse copy what the progressive scene did ten years ago and do it badly.

There are already bands that combine and muddle genres and bend them to their own will, and they all do it better than muse.

You associate muse with break-through because you have never heard anything like it before.

Dig deeper. Go back further to the start of the rock/electronica hybrid, and realise it is MUCH older than you think it is and then progress back to modern music.

See where you end up.

[lordbaztard]

Oh and look up how Delia Derbyshire wrote the original Dr Who track in 1963. That alone should be an eye-opener.

[LiveSingLaughSleep]

@lordbaztard so if this makes you hate muse why did you look at a video with muse and doctor who in it? weird chap..and as well as that muse are amazing now...just as good as the showbiz days because they still keep fresh and remember to keep with the generations and gain new fans while maintiaining the old ones...well, the proper fans anyway, as people like you are just idiots

[lordbaztard]

@LiveSingLaughSleep That's a great question. The answer is though I wasn't aware it was a muse track when I clicked the link, someone just linked a youtube link and said it was cool. Given I'm a massive Doctor Fanboy, I clicked the link, but the reason it annoyed me is as Muse denied it was anything of the sort until enough of these videos caught them out.

It is funny though, The most recent doctor who episode started with a Muse track playing in the tardis. That was cute.

[aamusedd22]

dr who and muse together...a dream come true

[heinousthunder]

Im with most of yall on this the first time I heard this song I thought of The Doctor

[Twiliighttt]

it's not just a similarity, it was written to include the theme tune.

[RPATZ11]

wattt tha would be good but i am a massive dr who fan and there is only 1 thing i would chang in all of dr who davdi tennant not leavin i will be crying :'(

[graymic]

totally agree, best dr who so far =P

[RPATZ11]

@graymic I pure love david and it would be so scary if u met him lol

[nickotecki]

i totally thought this after listening to the song

[randygilpin]

Great song! When I first heard it, my thoughts were --- The Timelords, "Doctorin' The Tardis", and Depeche Mode, "Personal Jesus."

[geofree1984]

fuck muse

[XOgreWarHulkX]

I'm not joking either. I just went on a search for muse and doctor who because of this song.

[graymic]

so true xD haah

[BenjaminWirtz]

I'm glad someone else heard the similarity.

[adamtorbayexpress]

WOW

[luvlylady0526]

I totally thought Dr Who!! It took me til the end of the song to decide that it wasn't Dr Who. Though, I enjoy listening to the song just for the fact that it reminds me of the doctor.

[wilsonslass]

I can hear Dr Who, I'm sure I can. Its a bit like Morecambe and Wise - they are playing all of the Doctor Who notes, just not necessarily in the right order.

[musketeer667]

i agree it does sound like the doctor who opening, if i were the BBC i'd pay Muse to use this song as the Doctor Who theme tune.

You could actually make a Doctor Who montage video with this song behind it

[StacyWantsYou]

The synth sound is similar to the one in the Dr Who theme but they are completely different tunes. How can you people not tell?

[graymic]

ummm... dude I realise that we are not talking about scales or tunes we are talking about how in general it sounds similar to one another... I can tell and i know they use different melodies....

[Olizardladyo]

add watch?v=j_kpcXwDa7c - compares clips if you aren't sure :) Nice vid btw

[Bladmapples]

Thats the first thing I thought of when I heard it too XD Dr Who is no doubt going to use one of the new songs somewhere along the line. So is Top Gear I bet, they're great.

[graymic]

agreed =P i was thinking the same thing about top gear this morning aha.

[PrimaPunchy]

amazing

but what did you thought? they also made "supermassive black hole" so they know about this kind of space stuff xD

[yalelush]

that's exactly what i thought!

[pixienymph]

Dude! it totally is!

[shadowbarrowman]

xDD Now THAT is a Doctor Who Opening!! xDD My god, why haven't the BBC asked Muse to do this yet?

[crazycow921]

MegaCherrytop = worst spammer EVER

[IFaZI]

exactly what i thought when i heard it the first time

[borntoplaybass]

MURRAY GOLD, YOU ARE SACKED!!! My girlfriend worships this show, I'm a fan but not a worshipper. I think the beeb should sub this for 1 episode and see if anyone noticed. That would be funny. Can't wait for the 14th!!

[melonacolypse]

ahahahahahhahahahahaha, such a good substitute

[EvilMuzz]

I'd watch Doctor Who a lot more if Muse was the theme music.

[IIDeadStarII]

Haha this was inevitable

[wilp94]

LOL!

[fi6fo]

thanks!!! At last I get a mention.  : D

[fueschgast]

Ahaha, I've waited for someone to combine DW video & Uprising audio! XD
